Don't worry
I started about 2 months ago. Some people may not believe me, so you can go look at my profile. But I was 250 Elo, but of today, I reached 1007 Elo, which I'm very proud of. If I had a coach. I think I'd even be much better than I currently am. I'm 14 looking for a coach willing to teach me for free. I want to take chess to competitions in my country and eventually, internationally
well all the power to you guys for getting so high a standard so fast --- not sure how you did it but you did it --- unless you cheated -- but thats a different matter --- i have been playing for over 2 years and still can't get over 150 on a regular basis watch videos do puzzles over 800 now and still doing them and even look at the lessons here thats are provided by chess.com everyday -- but without a real teacher( one that i can afford) iam afraid that i will be those in the basement of chess -- even the generosity of player who gave me a month's free premuim doesn't seem to help -- iam at loss to know what to do next -- but i wish you well on your skyward rocketdom to the higher reaches of chess
